After cutting her hair, Xia Yitong sent the small tram to the new location of M Coffee Shop, and the moving company was moving things into the house, and Harry was rightfully exploiting her labor.

The newly leased store of the coffee shop is directly opposite the Jubao community, and it is said that it used to be a barbecue restaurant, a noodle restaurant before that, a beauty club before it, and a supermarket before it, all of which have closed down.

The gate of the Jubao community and the gate of the coffee shop face each other, separated by only a pedestrian crossing. Xia Yitong once persuaded him: "This community is not very good, do you want to change places?"

Harry said with a shocked face: "I didn't expect you to be so feudal and superstitious at a young age, you and I dare to use it, and you are still afraid of a ghost community?"

It sounds awkward, but when you think about it, it's true. Since she entered college, she has been working in Harry's shop for almost a year. During this period, he was neither violent nor terminally ill, and he was still showy, and his life should be hard enough.

Harry narrowed his eyes, smiled warmly, and added: "Moreover, the mystery of the store can only be highlighted by opening the store opposite the ghost community, and in the future, our store will focus on dark style." ”

Recovering from her thoughts, Xia Yitong opened the window on the second floor to ventilate, from which she could just see her home.

Counting from east to west, the second building has three floors and four floors in the east of the building. Old-fashioned stacked villa, staircase in the house, four rooms, but she has always been the only one to live in.

She suddenly remembered the white punishment, and she didn't know if he was gone.

A cool breeze blew, the sky was overcast, and realizing that it was going to rain, she hurriedly closed the window, said hello to Harry and ran towards the community, and when she came to the gate, she couldn't help but speed up her pace.

As soon as I ran home, I saw Bai Xing sitting on the sofa with his chin propped up and a serious face. His expression moved slightly when he saw her, but he quickly returned to seriousness.

He motioned for Xia Yitong to come over, and Xia Yitong pulled a chair and sat opposite him, hugged the storage stool next to him in his arms, opened the lid and took out a pack of spicy strips.

Bai Xing said, "I'll show you something." ”

He took out a lighter from his pocket and opened it with a "snap", and the silver metal lighter immediately ignited with blue flames.

Xia Yitong stared at the flame very seriously, watching it turn from blue to red and then to orange, then to blue and then to red and then to orange.

The big spicy strip in her hand disappeared without entering her mouth, and she pulled out the second one.

Bai Xing had a black line on his head, and said angrily: "Don't you feel anything?"

"Feelings?"

He was so loud that she quickly opened another bag of potato chips to suppress the shock.

Bai Xing snatched the potato chips from her hand, and the next second he rolled from the sofa to the ground like a deflated balloon.

Five minutes later, he struggled to get up from the ground, making sure that professional amnestic tools didn't work for her.

You can't modify your memories and you can't delete them, and you have to find a way to stay with her, so there's only ......

Bai Xing supported his hands on his knees, put his right hand into a fist and coughed lightly, his eyes swept to Xia Yitong, and he couldn't help but feel disgusted when he saw that she was struggling to stuff a fist-sized loaf of bread into her mouth.

He suddenly wished that she had nothing to do with it, even though he had been searching for it for 19 years.

"How about introducing you to a job?" Bai Xing asked.

Xia Yitong nodded, shook his head again, and replied vaguely: "I have a job in the coffee shop opposite." ”

"How can the job I introduced to you be comparable to that of a mere waiter?" Bai Xing stood up, put his right hand on his left chest, held his head high, and his eyes shone with pride, "The job I introduced to you belongs to the monster management department, with high benefits, high pensions, no lottery number to buy a house in the demon world, and you can also exchange work points for mortgages, in short, except for the low salary, everything else is high, what do you think?"

Xia Yitong thumped his chest and swallowed the bread, then silently took out his mobile phone and dialed 120, "Hey, the hospital? I crushed a person's brain yesterday, and the address is ......."

Bai Xing jumped up angrily, "Don't you see that I am not a human being? I am the captain of the Kaifeng City Demon Hunting Team of the Qishu Pavilion, and I am also the acting demon director of this city, and the biggest official among the monsters in this city! I can arrange for you to be my assistant, and after I punish the evil and promote the good, you will be responsible for collecting the demons." ”

Although he didn't understand what the Qishu Pavilion and the Demon Division in his mouth were, Xia Yitong was frightened by his momentum, and trembled and opened another bread and stuffed it into his mouth.

She suddenly remembered that the tentacle monster yesterday really didn't look like a human pretending, and she pressed his arm yesterday instead of a brain.

She hung up the phone and said, "I'll think about it." Then he got up and went into the room.

When he looked up again, Bai Xing found that she had moved to the gate with her suitcase, and he chased after her and subconsciously reached out to grab it.

In the pitch-black community, there was a muffled sound from the only floor-to-ceiling window with the lights on, and then several people carrying cameras and flashlights hanging "Strange Adventure Magazine" practice signs saw that a person in the window bent down unhurriedly, dragging a "corpse" in the direction of concealment.

Several people shivered like chaff, looked at each other, and rushed towards the gate screaming at the same time.

Five minutes later, Bai Xing, who was half-lying on the sofa, looked like he had just recovered from a serious illness, drank the hot water handed over by Xia Yitong, and handed her back the cup.

"This job may be able to help you find out the cause of Zuo Yuming's death, don't you want to know how he died? ”

She stopped taking the cup, her mind buzzing, as if she saw the shadow on the wall in the alley again.

"How do you know him? What does it mean that the body is gone?"

Although she tried to restrain herself, Bai Xing could still hear a slight tremor in her voice.

He lit a cigarette and exhaled the smoke ring.

"The fact that the body is missing means that his death may have transformed him. ”

At night, Xia Yitong lay on the bed, looking through the window at the little starry sky exposed between the buildings, the sky was reflected in neon dark orange, and the starlight was dim, just like her mood now.

Bai Xing's words rang in his ears: "In this world, there is not only the human world, but also the legendary god world and the demon world. It's just that they are different from your legends, they just exist in a world of another dimension. A thousand years ago, the first demon emperor led his disciples to open the door of space with powerful demon power, leading more than 90% of the monsters in the human world to their new homes, so after the Song Dynasty, there were few monsters in the human world.

"But there are still some monsters who voluntarily stayed, and Qianying, a disciple of the first demon emperor, was worried that these monsters would be bullied in the human world, so he stayed to protect these monsters and established an organization like the Qishu Pavilion, and later the Qishu Pavilion was taken over by the demon world, and it became the management body of the monsters in the human world.

"And those who remain in the human world and give birth to children born after combining with humans are half-demons. Some of these half-demons have lived like normal humans all their lives, and some will transform into monsters in a unique way, and Zuo Yuming is likely to be a half-demon who has been transformed through death.

"However, I heard that there is also a monster organization in the human world, which specializes in finding demons that have just been transformed, and using drugs to control them to commit some criminal acts, I think Zuo Yuming's disappearance is likely to be related to this matter.

"If he's really not dead, don't you want to see him, and if he's really dead or controlled, don't you want to avenge him?"

The pitch-black building next door used to be his home, and Zuo Yuming's bedroom was on the second floor, and his window was just right to see from her window.

At that time, my aunt hated her because she had a strange illness and refused to give her food. Zuo Yuming pretended to feed stray animals and asked her to bring her food in the old alley outside the community. Their secret signal was that after evening, the bedroom light flashed twice in a row, and Xia Yitong went out.

She still remembers when he unzipped up and took food out of his school uniform, and a circle of stray dogs jumped and jumped happily around him.

He sat side by side with her on the stone steps of the alley, watching the puppies at his feet gobble up, and she gobbled up burgers with them. He reached out to help her wipe the bread crumbs off her face, the moment the cool fingers touched her skin, something soft crossed from the bottom of her heart, she looked up at him, the golden summer sunset gilded his side face with a layer of fluffy light, at that moment she felt that he was the best-looking person in the world, like an angel.

Xia Yitong slowly closed his eyes with a wave of faith, Brother Zuo Yuming, I will definitely find you.

What she didn't know was that at this time, the bedroom light on the second floor of the next building suddenly turned on, went off, lit up, and went out......
